House on Greenapple Road

Chief Frank Untermyer:
[as August starts to leave the room] Where are you going?

Lieutenant Dan August:
I'm a detective. I'm going out to detect. [Leaves]

Sergeant Charles Wilentz:
A detective. That's what I want to be when I grow up.

Chief Frank Untermyer:
There's no money in it.

Chief Frank Untermyer:
He's a good cop, Jack. If you take him off this case, you might destroy him.

Mayor Jack Parker:
We're all good cops, Frank. It's just that some of us have learned to bend with the wind.

Chief Frank Untermyer:
Yeah, who knows. Maybe for a man that just shows a lack of spine.
